Not on the house unfortuantely. I was a bit disappointed with progress while we were in England I have to say but I have been so busy working in the evenings and when the lads are at school that I can't seem to spur Daithi on to do work. He seems to disappear in to the house and I hear tools going but I just don't see what is being done! The next thing on the list is to get some front and side doors before we get the house rendered (new one on me). I know Daithi has been fretting at work so I have to give him a bit of a break but it is nearly the summer now!
When we came home from England the grounds of the house have transformed. There seem to be no daffodils left and the trees have suddenly spurted leaves and blossom. It is nice to see the apple blossom in the orchard and on the crab apple trees. The grass, nettles and weeds are becoming overgrown already. Another great sight is to see the veg patch springing into life. The potatoes, onions, radishes, lettuce are all making an appearance. We have a family of balckbirds nesting in the mound behind the mobile home. Last time we looked there were 4 eggs in the nest. I am trying to keep away in case they feel threatened and fly off but so far so good. The boys are really excited about it.
I have taken on some web design work which means all my spare time has gone. We have transformed the spare room in the mobile into an office. The old computer desk just fits in and it is a really nice place to work. Just have to get myself into work frame of mind!!!!
